# Alien Treasure

In Alien Treasure two kinds of treasure are scattered over the surface of a planet far from earth. Your ship has landed, and you have sent out your robot searcher which you guide from your control room. The field of search shows on your ZX81 as a full screen display. The treasure is marked by inverse video periods which are worth one point each and by inverse video asterisks which are worth 10 points each.
